Boat Wakeboards

When you’re looking for a boat wakeboard you’re looking for a board with great pop off the wake, distance in the air and soft landings.
Each board will be designed with a different balance of these attributes, to match a riders prefered style.

Different to cable boards a boat board will tend to be stiffer for added pop, have a sharper edge to cut through the water with more speed and fins that enable you to lock into the water while edging into the wake.

Wakeboard Rockers – When looking at boat wakeboards you will
3 different board shapes or rocker lines. Ronix define them as…

3 Stage Rocker

An exaggerated rocker line with a later arc and a higher degree of angle at the tip / tail. This style of rocker creates more of a instant explosive buck off the wake for riders that go behind a big boat wake. Wakeboarders riding behind smaller wakes will still feel like they are getting a solid vertical kick.

Continuous Rocker

For riders looking for a smooth, fast trajectory. This tip/tail has a more subtle arc so a rider doesn’t loose any speed leaving the wake. As a result, you can fly longer and carry that speed so you will land softer. You can go into the wake blindfolded and still know exactly how it is going to release off the wake.

Hybrid Rocker

The everyday rocker line for the rider that wants to experience all traits of speed, lift and landings. Depending on how much angle you have into the wake you might experience a more explosive vertical take off, or a faster smoother release off the wake.

Most boards come in multiple sizes so what is the right size board for you? Unlike most board sports, initially your weight determines the size of board you need, because your weight on the board determines how deep you sit in the water.

A longer board is more forgiving, creates less drag and gives more pop off the wake. A shorter board sits deeper in the water, is more aggressive and potentially less forgiving. However, being shorter means, it has less swing weight and is easier to spin.
